Hey Maxim Thank you for the Reply good advice.
I never knew CFD Had K9 Units. are they search and Rescue dogs or Arson Investigator?
A couple other things another Fire Buff and I would be interested in and we are not sure if its possible or not but a Ride along with either CFD or DFD for a couple hours. as well as tours of the communications centers? has anyone had any luck with either of these or know where to begin.
We are getting alot closer to the date so we are locking in more details. We plan to drive from Minnesota to Madison Wi on Friday May 2nd. Stay over night in Madison and Buff the Madison Wi Area the next day as well as Rockford Illinois. we are not sure if we plan to drive straight thru to Detroit from Madison Saturday evening or if we should Stop for 1 night in Chicago. we plan to stay 3-4 nights in Each City.
For Detroit we are looking at a Hotel in the Dearborn Heights area right off of Michigan ave. We hope this is not too far away from Detroit to catch a good Fire, we dont plan on spending much time in the room. just plan on being on the road alot more then in hotel.
A 2nd option for hotel in Detroit would be in Livonia. Just off of the highway it looks to be alot closer to Detroit. my only concern is it a safe area.
For Chicago we are staying just South of the Midway Airport Near Station 127, and near Bedford Park Station 2. again hoping this is not too far away from the action. it seems to be a little tougher in Chicago being we wont be able to hear the companies dispatched just arriving on scene.
